| Mar 17, 2023 at 2:46 | comment | added | Nelson | @DJClayworth It's entirely down to the terms and conditions. The last thing OP need is to have an accident in the US where they're not covered. You can figure this out easily (5 minutes) by calling the insurance. No point of making assumption about what "most" means. Just call the insurance. | |
| Mar 16, 2023 at 23:58 | comment | added | Meg Guerrero | @DavidSupportsMonica thank you for the helpful advice. I will make sure to ask my mom about the insurance. | |
| Mar 16, 2023 at 23:31 | comment | added | DJClayworth | @DavidSupportsMonica That's why it says "most". | |
| Mar 16, 2023 at 21:17 | comment | added | DavidRecallsMonica | @DJClayworth Do we know if the OP's parents' Canadian insurance policy covers "anyone driving with the permission of the owner?" We do not. | |
| Mar 16, 2023 at 16:47 | comment | added | DJClayworth | Most North American auto insurance covers "anyone driving with the permission of the owner". | |
| Mar 16, 2023 at 14:37 | comment | added | DavidRecallsMonica | @MegGuerrero Note that the insurance coverage on the vehicle must extend to anyone who'll drive the vehicle, and do so in both Canada and in the United States, and meet whatever insurance requirements are imposed in any US state where the vehicle will be driven. | |

| Mar 15, 2023 at 0:45 | comment | added | Nelson | Hmm, that's good, but still won't help with the 3 passengers maximum limit. Technically illegal. Most likely won't get pulled over for it though, but at a border crossing, the guard will raise an eyebrow at you using a learner's permit to cross, and may look that up just to make sure. | |
